Japmaala chhapein, Tilak Sare Na Ekaukam - Shri Bihari Lal, Bihari Satsai

Japmala chhapein, Tilak Sare Na Ekaukam.
Man Kaanche Naache Vratha, Sanche Rache Ram.

- Mahakavi Shri Bihari Lal, Bihari Satsai

Bihārīlāl Jī says that merely counting the beads of a japa mālā or applying tilaka to the forehead accomplishes nothing. If the mind is unsteady and immature, it will continue to dance after worldly objects in vain. Only one who wholeheartedly engages the mind in devotional bhajana can become filled with the love of God.
